PEREZ, Oresta LÓPEZ. Sorority letters between two intellectual women: Palma Guillén and Gabriela Mistral. R. Educ. Públ. [online]. 2019, vol.28, n.67, pp.151-168.  Epub May 15, 2019. ISSN 2238-2097.  https://doi.org/10.29286/rep.v28i67.7482.

In the present work an immersion in the epistolary exchange is offered as the figuration of the sorority between two great Latin American women intellectual: the Chilean woman writer and winner of the Nobel prize Gabriela Mistral, and Palma Guillén, woman diplomat and Mexican writer. A relationship that began in 1922 and lasted until the death of Gabriela Mistral in 1957. I analyze the epistolary exchange between 1942 and 1957 (Ziegers, 2011) looking for cognitive possibilities of sororal representation, to know the meanings, dissidences and contributions about communication between women. The sources are the text woven in the communication between two great women friends who face in their own way the distances, the desperation, the personal pain and the perceptions of the world in the wars they lived.
